WATCH: Mother Defends Giving Her 8-Year-Old Daughter Botox

Back in March, we introduced you to Britney Campbell, the 8-year-old girl whose mother regularly injects her with Botox in the hopes of preventing wrinkles and furthering her bourgeoning beauty pageant career. While there has been some speculation that Campbell and her terrifying story were both a hoax (because, well, really?), GMA put those rumors to rest this morning by having both Britney and her mother on the show.

Britney’s mother Kerry was pretty unapologetic about her actions and openly admitted that she thought Britney looked better after the treatments. The only thing she was reticent about revealing was where she was getting the Botox. Probably because it’s, you know, not legal. Legality aside, the saddest thing about this is that Britney seems so convinced that the Botox injections are necessary. She told GMA that post-injection, she “looks way better, like, beautiful, pretty, like, all those kinds of nice words.”
